The Philadelphia Eagles are "looking to get A.J. Brown involved more and early" on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. He noted that the Eagles had several plays dialed up for Brown to get more targets last week, but they didn't work out, and the star receiver finished Week 1 with just one reception. Based on Garafolo's comments, it appears that last week should be treated as an anomaly, and Brown will be more involved in Week 2. An increased target share could come naturally for Brown as the Eagles will be without Dallas Goedert (knee), who caught seven passes in the season opener.

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell finds himself as a healthy inactive for the second straight week to open the season in Week 2 against the division-rival Cleveland Browns on Sunday. To begin the 2025 campaign, Mitchell has found himself as the team's RB4 behind Derrick Henry, Justice Hill, and Rasheen Ali. The 23-year-old has intriguing power and explosiveness, but he's had trouble staying on the field early in his career, playing only 13 games (two starts) since entering the league in 2023. He has averaged a healthy 6.9 yards per carry on his 62 rushing attempts with 426 yards and two touchdowns, but right now, he's off the fantasy radar altogether in redraft leagues. Mitchell's next chance to make his 2025 debut will be in Week 3 against the Detroit Lions on Monday, Sept. 22.

New York Jets rookie tight end Mason Taylor (ankle) is officially active and will play on Sunday against the division-rival Buffalo Bills at MetLife Stadium. Taylor was listed as questionable on the final Week 2 injury report, but he will be available for the Jets and fantasy managers. The 21-year-old second-rounder played 88 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 1 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, but he only had one catch (on one target) for 20 yards, despite the team putting up 30 points. He'll be looking to increase his production against a Bills defense that just gave up 40 points to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1, although Ravens tight end Mark Andrews only had one catch for five yards. Fantasy managers should consider Taylor more of a TE3 on Sunday in just his second NFL game.

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright (knee), who was listed as doubtful on Friday's final injury report, is officially out for Sunday's Week 2 divisional clash against the New England Patriots. Wright had a minor surgery on his right knee in late August and was always expected to miss time early in the 2025 season. With a quick turnaround next Thursday night in another divisional tilt against the Buffalo Bills, Wright is probably going to be facing an uphill battle to make his season debut. When fully healthy, the explosive and fast Wright should operate as De'Von Achane's primary backup. Miami's offense looked terrible in the Week 1 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, giving rookie Ollie Gordon II limited opportunities to make noise behind Achane. Fantasy managers should not be starting Gordon against the Pats with Wright out again.

Buffalo Bills veteran wide receiver Curtis Samuel is once again a healthy inactive for Sunday's Week 2 divisional contest on the road against the New York Jets. Samuel was also a healthy scratch for the season-opening win over the Baltimore Ravens last Sunday night. Right now, the 29-year-old is buried on Buffalo's receiver depth chart, thanks to the offseason additions of Joshua Palmer and Elijah Moore. Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Tyrell Shavers are also ahead of him. Samuel should remain on the waiver wire in all fantasy formats for now. In his first year with Buffalo in 2024, he caught 31 of his 46 targets for 253 yards and only one touchdown in 14 regular-season games (two starts).

Tennessee Titans rookie running back Kalel Mullings (ankle) has officially been ruled out of Week 2 against the visiting Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Mullings made his NFL debut in last week's loss to the Denver Broncos as the RB3 behind Tony Pollard and Julius Chestnut, but was quickly injured in the first half on special teams. The 22-year-old sixth-rounder didn't see a single touch on offense in the 20-12 loss in Denver. With Tyjae Spears (ankle) on Injured Reserve and set to miss at least the first four weeks of the season, Tennessee's backfield depth behind Pollard and Chestnut is dangerously thin. Now that Mullings is out, the Titans were forced to bring up Jordan Mims from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the Rams. He'll operate as the team's No. 3 RB in Week 2.

New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Efton Chism III is once again a healthy scratch for Week 2 on Sunday versus the division-rival Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium. Chism impressed the coaching staff in training camp and the preseason, but it wasn't enough to put him on the active game-day roster the first two weeks of 2025. The 23-year-old was an undrafted free agent and has more work to do to get on the field on Sundays in his first NFL season. For now, he's just a bench stash in deep dynasty/keeper fantasy leagues. At the moment, he's blocked by receivers Stefon Diggs, DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins, and Kyle Williams. If an injury arises to any of New England's receivers, Chism will likely be the first to benefit.

Detroit Lions running back Sione Vaki (hamstring) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 2 contest against the Chicago Bears. He was limited in practice this week but was not expected to play after the Lions listed him as doubtful. The 24-year-old played in 16 games last year, totaling 51 scrimmage yards, but has not yet stepped on the field in his second pro campaign. Craig Reynolds will continue to operate as the Lions' No. 3 running back behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

For the second straight week to begin the 2025 season, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Jermaine Burton is a healthy inactive for the Week 2 contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Burton had a pretty rough rookie season in 2024 that involved some maturity issues, but he got rave reviews during training camp in the summer. For now, though, Charlie Jones is ahead of him as the team's WR4 behind Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Andrei Iosivas. The 24-year-old former third-rounder caught four passes for 107 yards on 14 targets in 14 games in his rookie season. Burton isn't anywhere close to the fantasy radar in redraft leagues right now.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Jahdae Walker (ankle) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 2 contest against the Detroit Lions. He had been listed as doubtful after missing practice on Friday. The 23-year-old did suit up in last week's season opener, but he only played on special teams. Chicago should have no trouble replacing him on special teams this week, and his absence has no impact on the Bears' offense or fantasy managers' lineups.

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's Week 2 contest against the Dallas Cowboys. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity on Friday. Having Robinson available will be key for the Giants, as he's their second-best option in the passing game behind Malik Nabers. The 24-year-old was productive in last week's season opener, catching six of eight targets for 55 yards. He should continue to deliver similar productivity this week against the Cowboys, as the Giants are expected to throw the ball a lot while playing from behind. He ranks as a mid-range WR3/flex, especially in PPR leagues.

Dallas Cowboys running back Jaydon Blue (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 2 contest against the New York Giants. The fifth-round rookie has now been a healthy scratch for each of the Cowboys' first two games of the season. In his absence, Miles Sanders will serve as the backup running back behind Javonte Williams. Sanders and Williams are the Cowboys' only two active running backs, but fullback Hunter Luepke should also see some blocking work in the backfield. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should be patient with Blue and hold onto him, as it's likely only a matter of time before he's active as the No. 3 running back or leapfrogs Miles Sanders for the backup job.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson (shoulder) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 2 contest against the Tennessee Titans. He had been listed as doubtful after missing all three practices leading up to this weekend's game. Parkinson is working his way back from an AC joint sprain that he suffered last Sunday against the Houston Texans. Parkinson was actually able to finish last week's game after receiving medical attention, but evidently, the Rams aren't going to send him onto the field for Week 2. Terrance Ferguson is active for his NFL debut and will assist in filling Parkinson's void alongside a tight end committee that also features Tyler Higbee and Davis Allen. None of these Rams tight ends can be trusted in fantasy football, but Ferguson is an intriguing stash in dynasty leagues.
